Dec 10, 2011 4:18AM PST

I am feeding an HDMI input from my Win 7 PC to my HL-S5687W TV, the picture is a lot better than using the PC VGA connector, but I am not getting any audio.
I am not sure where to connect the audio coming from he PC.

Here, all it needed was for me to tell my laptop to use HDMI AUDIO.

I am not using a laptop and my PC did not come with HDMI, I had to add a Video card to get HDMI.
I do have an audio output on the PC, I just don't know where to connect it to the TV.
